What does my work space say about me??
Hi ho Hi ho.. It’s always to work I go.
If I am at home I am on a dead run, Kids, cooking, cleaning, lessons, callings.. etc you name it I am at it.
During the weeks days though I devote my time to my job away from home. For the past 4 years & 3 months I have been employed with Evco house of hose. A hosing company based in Salt Lake city. We have a total of 8 store locations spread across Utah & 1 in Idaho. I started at EVCO four years ago as a receptionist & over time moved up to accounts receivables department then on to accounts payables. I can honestly say I love my job. I have spent many hours, sweat & tears at that place! I have managed to become really good friends with my co workers & they have been such a great company that I have been able to work a shift that caters around my children’s schedules & still have great benefits & awesome pay raises.
When I started at EVCO my last name was “Virgin” (this was before I married Justin) anyways at evco they always have you use your first initial of your first name & your full last name for your email address. I will never forget within the first two weeks of working there one of the customers called in & wanted to email something over to me. So I gave him my email address “AVirgin@houseofhose.com” the customer bust up laughing and asked if I was joking. I didn’t get the joke so I calmly and seriously said “Yes that is my email address” He continued to laugh so I finally asked him what was so funny?? He responded with “A Virgin at house of hose??” I was mortified & it then became the laughing joke of my company. Needless to say the week that I married Justin my first request was to change my email address!
Here is where I spend my time:
This picture is to the left of my desk – this is my “dump all” area anyone who knows me well will notice my obsession of smell also follows me to work (the burning candle)
Looking at my desk. – this is what I stare at 6 to 7 hours a day
My collection of “Important stuff”
And last of all my partner in crime! (or the lady I work directly with) Shauna! This lady literally has such a great attitude she keeps me laughing all day! If you can see we have a window in between our offices & I have never shut it! She will pop through the window sometimes & order up a Big mac & some fries!
So what does my work space say about me??

Hey! I like this post. It is great to see where you work, your co-worker, etc. Now I can picture where you spend your weekdays…

Now I can picture what your desk looks like when you are pulling in in the morning and we are on the phone and you are at your desk and someone keeps looking at you like “When are you going to get off of your phone?”
And, to see a picture of Shauna, whom you have mentioned before when we have been on the phone. Good post.

I never heard about your old e-mail address. I’m sorry that you were mortified but that’s really funny. What are the odds of having such a, uh, “unique” name? 😉
